Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques

Seeing Chen Fei about to challenge the Age Tower, those who were previously circling the martial arena from the Sun Moon Realm quickly gathered in front of the Age Tower.

Watching a regular martial arena competition was not nearly as interesting as watching a prodigy like Chen Fei challenging the Age Tower.

Especially since Chen Fei was now in the late stages of the Sun Moon Realm, whether he could squeeze into the top hundred had become an uncertain matter.

Had Chen Fei already been at the peak of the Sun Moon Realm, everyone’s speculation would have turned to just how far Chen Fei could climb in the Age Tower.

Chen Fei looked at the crowd surging towards him with a slight smile on his face, cupped his hands in a salute, then walked into the Age Tower.

At the same time, the news of Chen Fei challenging the Age Tower began to spread throughout the entire Qiankun Mansion at an extremely fast pace.

Anyone who wasn’t preoccupied with urgent matters was now rushing over here.

Even some Rule Integration Realm heads from Qiankun Mansion had heard the news, and came to the public area with a trace of curiosity.

Qu Qingsheng and the others, who were of the Mountain Sea Realm at most, felt somewhat intimidated surrounded by so many cultivators of the Sun Moon Realm.

Although those in the Sun Moon Realm were already trying to restrain their auras as much as possible.

But the pressure they felt internally was far greater than what they actually sensed in terms of aura.

However, seeing so many people waiting under the Age Tower just to see how far Chen Fei could go filled them with pride.

Inside the Age Tower, Chen Fei felt the space around him change, first into complete darkness, followed by a light that illuminated the space, transforming the scene before his eyes.

Atop the peak of a mountain range, a huge martial arena was situated, and Chen Fei stood at one end of the arena.

As Chen Fei appeared, ripples surfaced a mile ahead, and a figure emerged.

“I am the artifact spirit of the Age Tower. This is your first time challenging the Age Tower, so there are a few matters I need to go over with you,” the artifact spirit of the Age Tower said with a faint smile.

“Please proceed,” Chen Fei responded with a salute.

“Only those within the top hundred of the Age Tower will receive merit point rewards. However, to challenge the hundredth Challenger, you must first pass several tests of the Age Tower. Only if you pass these tests will you be eligible to challenge the Challenger…”

The artifact spirit spoke at a steady pace, outlining the matters of note for challenging the tower.

To challenge the Challenger, you need to qualify. This is because the Challenger that Chen Fei will face isn’t an illusion created by the Age Tower but rather the Age Tower will summon the actual person to battle with Chen Fei.

After all, while an illusion of Sun Moon Realm peak can match the power, it lacks the on-the-spot adaptability that a real person possesses, and the difference is not small.

Therefore, only by having the Challenger themselves present can fairness be ensured.

Naturally, if a Challenger is occupied and truly cannot appear, you may skip them and challenge the one above them until a Challenger in person arrives.

You might have wanted to challenge the one hundredth rank, but if only the ninety-third is available, that’s whom you’ll face.

If you end up failing because you’ve skipped too many ranks, then it’s just your bad luck.

After all, the Age Tower still needs to accommodate those who have become Challengers; it can’t simply cancel their status because they aren’t available.

Of course, if the Age Tower detects that a Challenger is maliciously avoiding battle to save their rank, it will forcibly cancel the Challenger’s qualification.

Besides the qualification tests and the possibility of skipping ranks, if you find yourself outmatched during a fight, you can immediately concede. The artifact spirit will transport the loser out of the Age Tower.

If you’re killed because you didn’t concede in time, then you’re truly gone.

The battles of the Sun Moon Realm are not child’s play; stepping into the arena means being prepared for the possibility of dying, a rule that is the same as in the martial arena.

Other than that, there are no additional rules within the Age Tower. It doesn’t ban Celestial Treasures, pills or talismans and such.

Whatever you can bring into the Age Tower, you can use all of it.

What is sought is reality because when you meet an enemy in the wilderness, you cannot ask them not to use this or that.

There’s also a special selection rule. After obtaining a rank within the top hundred, when you continue to challenge upwards, you can directly choose to skip thirty ranks.

That means if your strength is sufficient, reaching the number one spot doesn’t actually require many matches.

“If you have any questions, now is the time to ask them,” the artifact spirit said to Chen Fei.

“There are no questions,” Chen Fei shook his head.

“Good, shall we begin the test now?” the artifact spirit continued.

“Yes,” Chen Fei nodded.

“Please prepare!”

After delivering that message, the figure of the artifact spirit began to blur and then disappeared from the martial arena.

The martial arena became silent, with only the mountain wind constantly blowing.

Suddenly, a figure appeared on the arena, looking exactly like the artifact spirit, but was at the late-stage of the Sun Moon Realm.

As soon as this late-stage Sun Moon Realm figure appeared, he fixed his gaze upon Chen Fei, a murderous aura pressing directly onto Chen Fei.

The next moment, the late-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivator disappeared from his spot and appeared above Chen Fei’s head, slashing down at him with a sword blade.

The profound and overwhelming essence force surged towards Chen Fei like a landslide, with the entire sky filled with the presence of the sword blade.

Chen Fei slightly raised his eyes, and the entire mountaintop suddenly stilled, even a trace of the mountain wind became visible.

Chen Fei had originally thought that his test would be against the spirit puppet at the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm; unexpectedly, it was only a late-stage.

Chen Fei’s figure became slightly blurred as a warrior, exactly like him, split off, wielding a pitch-black sword blade in hand.

Through the Divine Power of Planting Beans into Soldiers and possessing nine rule particles, this warrior was at the low-level Sun Moon Realm the moment it split off.

Undoubtedly weaker than the late-stage spirit puppet, this warrior of Chen Fei was also endowed with the Indestructible Vision and God-slaying Sword.

Normally, warriors condensed through the technique of Planting Beans into Soldiers could hardly be endowed with other divine powers, as they were merely condensed from essence force and lacked the cultivator’s essence, energy, spirit, and soul.

Without this foundation, it’s naturally impossible to drive divine powers, hence they are mostly used as minor projections.

A low-level Sun Moon Realm projection, if numerous enough, could pose a considerable force not to be ignored, yet for Chen Fei, it still lacked a certain appeal.

Chen Fei’s real cunning was that his first divine power, Indestructible Vision, could convert essence force into any one of essence, energy, spirit, and soul.

So after summoning the warrior using the Divine Power of Planting Beans into Soldiers, Chen Fei directly left a seed of spirit and soul inside the warrior’s body. Relying on this seed, the warrior performed the Indestructible Vision.

After performing Indestructible Vision, the seed of essence, energy, spirit, and soul was completely exhausted, but with Indestructible Vision, the warrior could absorb the vital energy of heaven and earth to transform into essence force and then convert it into essence, energy, spirit, and soul.

The newly converted essence, energy, spirit, and soul started to sustain Indestructible Vision and used this as a foundation to execute the God-slaying Sword once more, forming a closed loop.

Moreover, the Desolate Night God Slaying Sword at the Great Completion realm absorbed the vital energy of heaven and earth at an exceedingly exaggerated speed. Once executed by the warrior, there was no need to worry about a lack of essence force.

Therefore, at this moment, Chen Fei’s warrior possessed two divine powers and was bolstered by the first Fifth-Tier techniques of the human race despite being at the low-level Sun Moon Realm.

If other cultivators possessing the technique of Planting Beans into Soldiers witnessed the warrior that Chen Fei had summoned, their eyes would probably pop out; it was simply too preposterous and beyond all reason.

Because if they left a trace of spirit and soul within their warrior, after executing a divine power, it would soon dissipate due to a lack of essence, energy, spirit, and soul to sustain it.

To maintain the use of two divine powers for an extended time would mean the warrior is no longer a warrior but has become a clone, which would make it unrelated to the Divine Power of Planting Beans into Soldiers.

The only regret Chen Fei had was that his warrior could not execute Celestial Suppression because the warrior lacked flesh and blood. Otherwise, the potential of this warrior would be utterly limitless.

“Boom!”

The warrior’s sword clashed with the spirit puppet’s blade, the booming sound echoing across the entire mountaintop.

The warrior staggered back a few steps. Given the two minor tiers of difference in realm, not getting blown away instantly proved the warrior’s battle strength.

Normally a late-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivator could turn an early-stage opponent to dust with a single strike, so merely stepping back a few steps was an impossible occurrence.

The human race considers those who can triumph in battle across a minor tier to be geniuses, almost certainly destined to break into the Rule Integration Realm in the future.

No one has ever required someone of the Sun Moon Realm to battle across two tiers; thus, the power displayed by the warrior at this moment was already quite ridiculous.

Of course, it was directly related to the warrior’s possession of Indestructible Vision. With this power, one remains at their peak unless their defenses are shattered in an instant, coming close to death.

Chen Fei’s divine power was truly deserving of being called the ultimate in invincibility and unyielding strength.

The spirit puppet repelled the warrior and took a step forward, raising its blade for another strike, but suddenly paused, hesitating for a moment.

Though the hesitation was extremely brief, the warrior caught it and charged straight forward with the God-slaying Sword in hand.

The spirit puppet quickly recovered, its blade slashing down again, but the overwhelming power of its last strike was significantly weakened.

The effect of the Forget Technique caused by the God-slaying Sword had made the spirit puppet pause and change its attack.

“Boom!”

The collision between sword and blade pierced the heavens, and this time, the warrior and the spirit puppet were evenly matched.

The murderous intent in the spirit puppet’s eyes grew thicker, its aura fluctuating rapidly as a layer of light shone forth, executing another divine power.

Chen Fei stood not far away, watching this scene with a smile on his face.

As long as the warrior wasn’t wiped out initially, its combat strength would grow stronger as the battle progressed. The opponent’s divine powers, as soon as they were executed for the first time, would be silenced right afterward.

It was as if the warrior continuously forced the opponent’s power to diminish.
